Abstract

An attempt was made to analyze the structure and competitiveness of the maize market in Davanagere. The Lorenz co-efficient of inequality was found to be 0.206 which revealed that there existed a higher degree of competitiveness for maize in Davanagere as market concentration was less. The maize traders from Davanagere established linkage with the poultry feed manufacturers of the district. Among the three poultry feed units in the study area, Feeds India Private Limited stood first for price and procurement reasons and Pragathi Feeds was preferred for payment reasons.
